Warmth for Winter: Donate to Promise Hill Project’s Winter Care Kit Fundraiser

As winter sets in, the biting cold becomes an even harsher adversary for those  without a roof over their heads . As we cozy up in our homes, it’s essential to remember those who don’t have a warm place to call their own.

Promise Hill Project is launching a Winter Care Kit Fundraiser to extend a helping hand to our unhoused neighbors during the harsh cold months. As temperatures drop, the challenges faced by those without shelter intensify, making it crucial to provide them with the tools to withstand the elements.

Our Winter Care Kit is designed to offer protection from extreme exposure, lack of shelter, and inadequate clothing. With your generous donations, this initiative can significantly impact the lives of the unhoused.

1. Extreme Exposure to Cold: Battling the Elements

Prolonged exposure to freezing temperatures can lead to severe consequences such as hypothermia, frostbite, and other cold-related injuries. Our Winter Care Kit shields against these dangers, offering a lifeline to those facing the harshest elements.

2. Lack of Shelter: A Struggle for Refuge

Many unhoused individuals find themselves without access to safe and warm shelters. Overcrowded or unavailable shelters exacerbate the struggle, leaving some no place to seek refuge. The kit provides a portable sanctuary, offering protection from the unforgiving cold.

3. Inadequate Clothing and Bedding: A Cry for Warmth

Unhoused individuals often lack sufficient warm clothing or blankets to shield themselves from the biting cold. Our kit includes essentials like beanies, neck warmers, gloves, and socks, providing warmth and a gesture of care and compassion.

4. Mental Health Challenges: Nurturing Hope in the Chill

Cold weather can contribute to heightened feelings of hopelessness, anxiety, and depression, issues already prevalent among the unhoused population. By addressing the physical and mental well-being, the kit becomes a holistic support system.

Inside the Winter Care Kit: A Source of Warmth and Comfort

Our Winter Care Kit is more than a collection of items; it’s a promise of warmth and comfort for those facing the bitter cold alone.

One Weatherproof Tent for Two: Sharing Warmth

Why for two? The unhoused carry with them not only the weight of their circumstances but also their personal belongings. Our weatherproof tent protects the individual and their possessions from extreme temperatures, snow, and rain.

One Sleeping Bag: Embracing Comfort

A good night’s sleep is a luxury for many unhoused individuals. Our kit includes a sleeping bag, providing comfort from dipping temperatures and hard surfaces. This simple yet profound gesture helps our outside neighbors stay warm and comfortable throughout the colder months.

Beanies, Neck Warmers, Gloves, and Socks: Warding Off the Chill

These essential items are not just accessories; they are tools for survival. Beanies, neck warmers, gloves, and socks protect the unhoused from hypothermia, retain body heat, and prevent frostbite. With your support, we can ensure that no one faces the cold alone.
